I was watching the Cardinal game when they announced the passing of Tony. I remember Tony from the Southside Journal. It was 1986. My sales career with the Journal was just beginning and Tony,s carreer was starting to wind down. I didn't know him that well but I remember him as a very happy person. Always pleasant. Always nice. Always trying to help others. The Redman's thoughts and prayers are with the Simokaitis family.
